SMART Board Goodies A Resource Blog by Amber Coggin 

Tvokids.com has so many great games and videos. Here is a spelling game that I really like called the Amazing Spelling Fleas. There are several rounds to the game. The first consists of popping the bubble with the correctly spelled word. Then you’ll move on to the next level where you choose the correct letter to complete the word, and so on. Check it out!

My students beg me to play on Kerpoof.com. BEG, I say! I’ve been promising them a fun activity after testing, so this week I let them have at it. It had been about a year since I’d explored the site, so I was surprised to see a new activity called Spell a Picture. Choose a background, starting spelling a word, and watch the pictures appear! You can also print the finished picture that includes the words that were spelled. Love this!

Sight Words with Samson is a wonderful site to learn and practice sight words. There are 4 sections: Learn Words, Build Words, Identify Words, Quiz. Below is a Build Words activity. You can choose your list and level with each section. This activity works great on the SMART Board! Give it a try!

Check out SpellingConnectionsOnline.com by Zaner-Bloser. This site goes with the company’s Spelling Connections program; however, anyone can use this site! There are several games and activities, and most work well on the SMART Board with the exception of a few the require keyboard entry (but those are great, too!). There are many different levels and units within each game as well. Below is one of the Complete the Sentence activities.
